This powerful conference session connects directly to our previous episode about our 5-month podcast break. While the last episode shared the "happy ending" of our infertility journey with baby Olivera's birth, this session was recorded in the middle of that same story - during failed fertility treatments with no promise of resolution.

 In This Session:

• The demon-possessed man's story from Mark 5
• Why Jesus intentionally enters our broken stories
• How sharing your story defeats the enemy

Breaking through 4 lies that keep us silent:

• "My story is insignificant" → Your story has IMPACT
• "My story is a trigger" → Your story TRANSFORMS
•  "My story is intimidating" → Your story is INTIMATE 
• "My story needs a happy ending" → Your story proclaims God's goodness NOW  

The Connection: This session shows what it looks like to live out faith in real time during trials, before knowing how God will answer our prayers. It's the theological foundation for everything we shared in our previous episode about living out theology in pain.  

📖 Scripture Focus: Mark 5:1-20 - The healing of the demon-possessed man
